Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 510 Redfish (1)
Du Heng smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Really? But I still think the food at home is more delicious."

Seeing that Du Heng no longer ate the dish full of gold and jade, she didn't know whether it was Du Heng who had discovered the poison in the dish or some other reason, she felt very uneasy. He could only lower his head and eat vegetables to hide the panic in his heart. Unknowingly, he ate half a plate of rouge goose breast, and Du Heng knew that Sun did not eat it on weekdays because he thought the goose breast was not delicate enough and had a slight smell. of.Sun's abnormal behavior is exactly the same as the poison in Jinyu Mantang and the empress dowager's flagon. These two points have already convinced Du Heng that the person who poisoned it was Sun, but she couldn't figure it out. Why did Sun want to poison?

This is the banquet for Du Heng and Wu Jingzhen to recognize their relatives. They are naturally the protagonists, so Du Heng doesn't have much time to think about why Sun Shi wanted to poison him. Much easier.Today Du Heng took Yang Mei to serve him. She has served Du Heng for the longest time, she is the person Du Heng trusts the most, and she can best understand Du Heng's intentions.

Du Heng took Yangmei to the clean room under the pretext of changing clothes.On the way, Du Heng gave an order in a low voice, and Yang Mei immediately understood, she responded lightly, as if nothing happened, she helped the master change clothes and hands, and then returned to the table.After Yang Mei came back, the servant girl who was serving Mrs. Sun suddenly felt her knees go numb, and she knelt on the ground crookedly.Surprised, Sun hurriedly asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

The servant girl blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and said in a low voice: "If you go back to Madam, your legs are numb and you can't stand up."

Sun frowned, but it was inconvenient for her to get angry on such an occasion.But Du Heng said calmly from the side: "Since the second sister-in-law's maid is unwell, why not step back and rest for a while, Yang Mei, you should serve the second young lady more."

Yang Mei hurriedly responded softly, but Sun wanted to decline but was afraid of making the commotion even worse, so she could only nod in agreement.Princess Ning saw a little movement at the table of her daughter-in-law, so she sent Cai Ni over to have a look. Du Heng and Cai Ni briefly talked, and Cai Ni helped Sun's servant girl down. Small things are still very convenient.

No one noticed this small movement, and even the fact that the queen mother was poisoned in wine, except for the queen mother Wu Jingzhen, Du Heng and a few court ladies who knew about it, no one knew that such a thrilling thing happened just now.Everyone just saw the bustle and bustle of flowers, and in addition to being envious of Wu Jingzhen and Du Heng, some of them thought about whether they should change their filial and loyal princes?Judging from what the Empress Dowager meant, it was obvious that she wanted to praise the Seventh Prince.

After the palace banquet was over, the clan ordered the wives to salute and leave, but the Empress Dowager had an unsatisfied expression on her face, and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan, Aijia is not rare enough, hurry up and hug me." Prince Ning and Princess Concubine responded, Quickly carried the youngest son to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager hugged Yuan Geer and did not let go, she just smiled and said: "You guys wait a while, let the Ai family play with Yuan Geer for a while before leaving the palace."

The wives saw that the Empress Dowager did not care for a great-grandson who was not young enough. Although they were envious, they had no other ideas. After all, Yuan Geer was born Hongmiaozheng and was the great-grandson of the Empress Dowager's direct relative. Besides, Yuan Geer has grown a lot now. The more like the former emperor, although no one dares to say this clearly, but everyone has eyes, and they know it without saying it.So they hurriedly resigned and left the palace, leaving everyone in Prince Ning's mansion behind.

Princess Ning thought that the queen mother really wanted to keep her for questioning because of her youngest son, but Du Heng knew that the queen mother was poisoned in wine.It's just that Mrs. Sun's heart was really agitated, and even her face, which was not rosy at first, became paler...

After the feast for the relatives was over, all the wives who ordered to return to the palace returned to the palace and left the palace. Only Princess Ning and her two daughters-in-law, a daughter and a son were left behind by the Queen Mother. Even the Queen wanted to stay. Politely declined.The empress was extremely unhappy, but had to accompany her to leave cautiously. She got the emperor's special decree to leave Fengyi Palace today. If she behaved well today, perhaps her feet would not be restrained anymore.If she offended the queen mother, I'm afraid it would not be a simple punishment like grounding.

The Queen Mother really teased Brother Yuan for a while, whether Brother Yuan was still a baby, after playing for a while, he became sleepy and yawned, the Queen Mother ordered Sun and Xiao Ling to take Yuan Brother to Xibian Temple for a while. placement.

Sun was worried and uneasy, but she didn't dare to disobey the Queen Mother's order, so she could only salute and retreat with Xiao Ling.Seeing this situation, Princess Ning felt a little uneasy, but her face remained calm, she just sat with the queen mother.

After Sun Clan Xiao Ling took Yuan brother away, the queen mother gave a wink, and all the maids and nuns who served beside her retreated, and the last one who retreated carefully closed the palace door carefully.

"Mother?" Princess Ning asked softly.

The queen mother said with a smile: "Mother Ze'er, you don't have to be too nervous. The Ai family asked you to stay because of some minor incidents at the banquet just now. If it weren't for Ze'er's daughter-in-law to be smart and intelligent, the Ai family would not be able to sit in peace right now." I'm here to talk to you."

Princess Ning was taken aback, she stood up and rushed to the Queen Mother, and asked nervously, "Queen Mother, are you really alright? What happened just now?"

The queen mother patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand lightly, and said with a smile: "The queen mother is fine. Ze'er really married a very good wife. Just now she found out that the wine was poisonous, so she poured the wine on purpose, and quietly told her Aijia warned, so Aijia didn't fall into the scheme. It's strange to say that Aijia has not been poisoned for more than ten years, but it brings back many memories of Aijia's past. Ze'er, you are only a month old. Son, you need to rest more, sit down and rest first, daughter-in-law Ze, come here and talk to the imperial grandmother in detail."

Du Heng stepped forward in response, saying that his nose was particularly sensitive to smells. When he was pouring the wine just now, the wine had a faint fishy smell, and Du Heng knew that the Queen Mother used the softest fruit wine. Fruity aroma, there should be absolutely no fishy smell.Only then did she keep an eye out, and wanted to try the poison again before serving the wine.Sure enough, after trying it, the crabapple embroidered with silver thread turned dark black, which meant that the wine was poisonous, and of course she had to warn the Queen Mother.

After listening to Du Heng's explanation, the queen mother smiled and nodded and said, "It's very rare for a child like daughter-in-law Xiang Ze to be so careful, daughter-in-law Ze, the emperor's grandmother you saved today, the emperor's grandmother will be rewarded to you, you want Just open your mouth, don’t worry about anything.”
